RIA members & friends

As advised the Australian Building Codes Board Consultation Outcomes Report on Accessible Housing Project<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.abcb.gov.au%2fInitiatives%2fAll%2fAccessible-Housing&c=E,1,xipHtPZm7ffCNjGXp3fDCnleciucS3cP3Rqqx-YrqbWQ2769tjg3XAo77vMOAcjphF7hWc1aOz95Ir6smn1GOm_jY2AR_-hh4Bje11-Aabrb9w,,&typo=1> is due in late March 2019.

The Accessible Housing project is undertaking Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) of options for potential minimum accessibility standards for housing, to be applied through the NCC. Accessible housing is any housing that includes features to enable use by people either with a disability or through their life stages.  The Consultation Report is the outcome of the first round of consultation and will provide direction for the ABCB in its development of the RIA.

The RIA must consider the Livable Housing Design Guidelines<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=http%3a%2f%2fwww.livablehousingaustralia.org.au%2flibrary%2fLHAGuidlinesEditionNo4-2017.pdf&c=E,1,cszgjcCn_QuQDhX49LhmcJNhj5oWhEBjUaAfjs7U5UEXNRsZq5Dk6rThFohoTd7NWqlC_qgcHlFcqFCQAgEVkR06alkxRpXD1Dc4C-AIox6LvgZf9RYGAJXC&typo=1> Silver and Gold level specifications as possible options for a minimum accessibility standard, and additional options identified through consultation.
